Murtha says U.S. poses top threat to world peace







South Florida Sun-Sentinel Tucson, Arizona | Published: 06.25.2006 MIAMI — American presence in Iraq is more dangerous to world peace than nuclear threats from North Korea or Iran, Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., said to an audience of more than 200 in North Miami Saturday afternoon. Murtha was the guest speaker at a town hall meeting organized by Rep. Kendrick B. Meek, D-Miami, at Florida International University's Biscayne Bay Campus. Meek's mother, former Rep. Carrie Meek, D-Miami, was also on the panel. War veterans, local mayors, university students and faculty were in the Mary Ann Wolfe Theatre to listen to the three panelists discuss the war in Iraq for an hour. A former Marine and a prominent critic of the Bush administration's policies in Iraq, Murtha reiterated his views that the war cannot be won militarily and needs political solutions. He said the more than 100,000 troops in Iraq should be pulled out immediately, and deployed to peripheral countries like Kuwait.

Hate to play the devil's advocate here, esp. as Murtha is slime, but;

- The words "at war" have a specific Constitutional meaning, which are not applicable to the present state of affairs.

- "America is the biggest threat to the world" is stupid and ignorant and asinine. But it is false? I do not believe opinions, however misguided they are, are true or false, given their subjective nature.


We're doing just fine by reminding people how much of a coward and an embarrassment Murtha is, there's no need for anything else.
